Charmless You carry no borrowed shine. No velvet platitudes rehearsed to charm a room into applause. Your voice arrives unvarnished a tumble of truth tripping over feet. Your thoughts blurted out before they’re ready, in sounds too rushed to become words. Your mouth cracks open and something real falls out. Dancing gestures unstudied, wild sincerity spilled straight from the source. Your edges are unfiltered, laughter loud enough to bruise the air, as you leak the language of blushes and guffaws, of slaps on the arm. And somehow, you’re the kind of real that hooks a heart. A raw page, I want to hold carefully and read again.

Sparkle sours.
Air tightens.
Residue clings
to the rim of the room.
Chairs inch back.
At the center, #charmless
rests under review
by breath alone.
Polish loosens.
Bone remains.

A charmless, chipped shell
accidental radiance
flowing from the cracks

Charm and
Harm
Are quite the pair
Ruse and
Malice
Look for lare
Egress
Say goodbye
Simply be aware,
charmless *may* be safer fare

A charmless fellow,
Harmless, it seemed, cops found a
Basement of bodies.

he's the opposite of charmless full of heart and wit and bravery someone who'd protect me though we're equally a mess with sins and sketchy pasts why worry about what's done there's no redo, only reruns if he'd take my hand at last and run towards the firing line as one, we'd survive just fine
Life is sweeter with someone just as imperfect as you are.

It's not that my work is charmless;
I like to think that I count.
Truly pray it's past harmless
For allies, I hope to be a fount.
No, the problem is mostly technical:
The proverbial "skill issue", if you will.

The #charmless river flows lethargic, waters the color of coffee with just too much milk. The boat floats without haste into the delta, and there we find the blossoming #lotuses, their gentle colors #conspiring to warm the coldest of hearts.
